Vitamin D is essential to preserving healthy bones, supporting immune function, and regulating mood.
Caring for an adequate daily intake of vitamin D is especially important during the cold months, when many people spend significantly less time in the sun. You can take this vitamin through supplements, but also by consuming foods that are naturally rich with it.
According to Eating Well, the daily recommendation of vitamin D for most adults is 600 IU (an international measuring unit for the effect or biological activity of a substance), increasing to 800 IU for people over 70 years of age. Below, you find three species of fish that are rich in vitamin D and that you should eat more often.
Trout
Troft is an excellent source of vitamin D; an 8 ounce [85 grams] package provides 645 IU, which is more than 100 percent of the recommended daily seizure for most adults. This makes it one of the richest natural sources of vitamin D. Besides vitamin D, the trout is rich in high-quality proteins and omga-3 fatty acids that help combat inflammation and support cardiovascular health.
Salmon
Salmon is one of the richest natural sources of vitamin D. An 8 ounce [85 g] of cooked salmon provides about 570 IU vitamin D, covering about 95 percent of your daily needs. Wild salmon tend to have more vitamin D than cultivated salmon, but both are excellent sources. The salmon is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids that support brain and heart health and help reduce inflammation, writes Eating Well, broadcast Clancosova.tv.
Sardelet
Only two sardines offer 46 IU vitamin D, which is slightly more than the amount you will find on an egg, writes Index.hr, broadcasts Clancosova.tv. Sardeles are also rich in calcium, vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids, making them an excellent choice to support bone and heart health. Plus, if you buy them canned, they're a fast and easy way to add protein and nutrients to your meals. Sardeles are perfect on toast, salad, or pasta.
